Our first event in Bangui was to gather in the missionary guest house to give thanks for a safe trip. Missionaries Heidi Sisson, Tina Walker, Janet Varner, and Tim and Ginger Hock met us there. Dr. Francois Ngoumape (center, flowered shirt) gave thanks for the safe trip. Then we all enjoyed a pizza together, topped with pepperoni we had brought, since it is not easily obtainable in Bangui.
